Author(s)
Hongqiang Fang, Wai Cheong Tam
This document serves as the documentation for the Fire Data Generator (FD-Gen), an automated tool designed to streamline the creation of multiple Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) input files. By employing Monte Carlo methods to sample relevant fire parameters

Autonomous bootstrapping of quantum dot devices

January 28, 2025
Author(s)
Anton Zubchenko, Danielle Middlebrooks, Torbjoern Rasmussen, Lara Lausen, Ferdinand Kuemmeth, Anasua Chatterjee, Justyna Zwolak
Semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) are a promising platform for multiple different qubit implementations, all of which are voltage controlled by programmable gate electrodes. However, as the QD arrays grow in size and complexity, tuning procedures that can

Automation of Quantum Dot Measurement Analysis via Explainable Machine Learning

January 13, 2025
Author(s)
Daniel Schug, Tyler Kovach, Michael Wolfe, Jared Benson, Sanghyeok Park, J. P. Dodson, Joelle Corrigan, Mark Eriksson, Justyna Zwolak
The rapid development of quantum dot (QD) devices for quantum computing has necessitated more efficient and automated methods for device characterization and tuning. Many of the measurements acquired during the tuning process come in the form of images

Human-in-the-loop Technical Document Annotation: Developing and Validating a System to Provide Machine-Assistance for Domain-Specific Text Analysis

May 14, 2024
Author(s)
Juan Fung, Zongxia Li, Daniel Stephens, Andrew Mao, Pranav Goel, Emily Walpole, Alden A. Dima, Jordan Boyd-Graber
In this report, we address the following question: to what extent can machine learning assist a human with traditional text analysis, such as content analysis or grounded theory in the social sciences? In practice, such tasks require humans to review and

Measurement-driven neural-network training for integrated magnetic tunnel junction arrays

May 14, 2024
Author(s)
William Borders, Advait Madhavan, Matthew Daniels, Vasileia Georgiou, Martin Lueker-Boden, Tiffany Santos, Patrick Braganca, Mark Stiles, Jabez J. McClelland, Brian Hoskins
The increasing scale of neural networks needed to support more complex applications has led to an increasing requirement for area- and energy-efficient hardware. One route to meeting the budget for these applications is to circumvent the von Neumann

An Introduction to Machine Learning Lifecycle Ontology and its Applications

April 19, 2024

Improving the TENOR of Labeling: Re-evaluating Topic Models for Content Analysis

March 23, 2024
Author(s)
Zongxia Li, Andrew Mao, Jordan Boyd-Graber, Daniel Stephens, Emily Walpole, Alden A. Dima, Juan Fung
Topic models are a popular tool for understanding text collections, but their evaluation has been a point of contention. Automated evaluation metrics such as coherence are often used, however, their validity has been questioned for neural topic models

Explainable Classification Techniques for Quantum Dot Device Measurements

Daniel Schug, Tyler Kovach, Jared Benson, Mark Eriksson, Justyna Zwolak
In the physical sciences, there is an increased need for robust feature representations of image data: image acquisition, in the generalized sense of two-dimensional data, is now widespread across a large number of fields, including quantum information

Building Fire Hazard Predictions Using Machine Learning

January 26, 2024
Author(s)
Eugene Yujun Fu, Wai Cheong Tam, Tianhang Zhang, Xinyan Huang
The lack of information on the fire ground has always been the leading factor in making wrong decisions . Wrong decisions can be made by individual firefighters, their local chiefs, and/or the incident commander. Any wrong decision at any level (scale)
